Seoul summers hit hard: thick, humid air that wraps around you like a fever dream. Wooyoungmi’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection takes that weight and turns it into something light, almost floating. It’s formalwear that refuses to be stifling, tailoring that breathes.

The idea is simple but clever: take the rigid codes of a gentleman’s wardrobe and soften them for the heat. Tailcoats, usually heavy and severe, are cut from whisper-thin silk viscose, shrunken down to feel almost weightless. Suits keep their sharp hourglass shape but are made from gauzy mohair—stiff to the eye, airy to the touch. Dress shirts get detachable collars crusted with tiny, sun-catching embellishments, like jewelry for the heat-dazed.

Then there’s the play between old-world formality and summer ease. Classic swimwear shapes are reworked in fine knits and lycra, blurring the line between sportswear and tailored precision. Sleepwear slips into daytime: slip dresses in silk viscose, pajama trousers cut full or narrow, all paired with leather jackets so light they feel broken-in from the start.
